How to set up a results series

The results series can be setup anytime, to apply for past races or future ones

You can create the results series setup and add the races as they happen

Or you can post the results to Webscorer.com first, then create the result series setup & add the races to the series at the same time

When posting results from Webscorer FAN or PRO, the app will ask if you want to add the results to your open series on Webscorer.com

Or, you can post the results to Webscorer.com, then navigate to your series setup page and add the results to the series there

Once you've created the results series setup & saved it, you'll get a URL that will stay the same as results are added to the series

Updates to series

The series standings page is created dynamically from the results data each time it's accessed

After adding the results to the series, if you make changes to results & repost, the series standings are automatically updated

If you notice that a racer appears twice in the standings with different spellings, just update the misspelling on the results & repost

You can change the series rules any time and the series standings will be updated accordingly without impacting the results

The same results can be part of multiple series, so you could have multiple series standings based on a different rules

One series standings shows "Total time"

Another series standings shows "Points per place"

A third series shows "% back" as an average

SERIES SETUP

Introduction

There are 4 main points systems to choose from for the series. There are many different variants of points systems in use today and offering all options would make the points system too complicated to use. We have attempted to offer enough options to offer interesting alternatives, but chances are you may not find an exact match to your existing series points system. We're happy to entertain feature requests, but we will apply the "simplicity" test before adding more options.

Race time

Finish time (or adjusted time) is used as "points" for each race in series

Choose Total time when adding the race times together

Average time is an option for races where the same course is used in each race
